When in college, everyone wants to graduate with the highest distinction in class. Here are a few tips that will help you prepare well for your college exams:
Start preparing from day one: Many students tend to take their studies very lightly and assume that they have ample time for their studies. This, however, is not the right approach. If you really want to succeed in college, it is necessary that you start preparing right after the first lecture. Waiting till the last moment is never going to help you understand or learn anything. Almost all universities give the actual assessment dates months earlier so that you can start preparing accordingly.
Note-taking during lectures: It is important that you take proper notes during your lectures. Highlight all important points emphasized by your tutor. When taking notes, also make sure you properly organize or else you will waste all your time looking for relevant notes.
Review your material weekly: Even if you go through your notes after each lecture, make sure you review the complete weekly activity at the end of the week. This will help you get a better understanding of the course you are studying. Also in case you don’t understand anything, you can easily ask for guidance from your tutor.
Group study: Studying in groups greatly helps you improve the understanding of a subject. This is also one of the best ways to get full command over a subject.
Use visual aid: If you are having problems memorizing a few points, make use of visual cards, flashcards, etc. A very successful way of memorizing is to associate the subject with a song you like. If you try it, you will be surprised with how quickly you memorized the topic.
Ask for friends and family help: Ask your family members or friends to ask you different questions relating to the subject that you are studying.
